4/4/24 7 years ago, we held an adoption event. This person walked up with this really fat beagle with a tiny little head. Her belly was red. They surrendered her. She was nine years of age and apparently had severe allergies her whole life, and her belly had looked red and raw most of her life. Wow!
We took Kerry into the rescue and devised a plan to get her better. She had a series of shots (one daily for two weeks). That ended the cycle. Her belly finally was not red and not itchy. We did keep her on an allergy shot, but what an improvement. She went to a home with a past adopter just two months later, and she lived an amazing life. She lost a lot of the weight. She had a beagle brother and then ended up with another one as a hospice foster. Kerry, unfortunately, watched her brothers leave her and then a final blow… Kerry passed over the rainbow bridge after living a wonderful end to her life with lots of love and fun. We are grateful to her family for giving her what she needed. We are so terribly sorry for their loss of their last beagle. We hope the memories can bring comfort in time. Rest in peace, little Kerry.
